In the Premier League, even with the big teams, and even on derby days, the crowds can be somewhat meek. The players may not be producing on the pitch, maybe it's an early kick off, but for whatever reason the mood is soporific.
Then there's Argentina, when a training session can have close to a full house of screaming passionate supporters.
That was the case for Boca Juniors on Thursday, who held an open workout at their stadium in full view of their adoring support ahead of their Copa Libertadores 2nd leg against River Plate.
Check out the video of the session below:

The passion ran so high for one fan during the session that he broke on to the pitch in order to get closer to the team, with Carlos Tevez eventually persuading the security to let the man have his moment with the players.
Boca and River Plate are 2-2 on aggregate after the first leg, with the second leg taking place at River Plate at 8pm on Saturday
